Last Day at Cano Palma- Day 27

Our last day at Cano Palma started our bird banding. The rain delayed us until 6am and then we were able to band until around noon without breaks.

Also while mist netting we found a Black River Turtle and a Green Tree Anole (Norops bipocatus). A large male green basilisk was sitting on the dock as we released the turtle.

Our last night reptile and amphibian survey of the plots was fairly standard. We tried the futile efforts to keep dry as long as possible and eventually the water crept up above our knees.

And as if the world was mourning our leaving the jungle shook and the clouds cried as we left the jungle. In less dramatic terms the thunderstorm came in as we walked home and continued for most of the night.
